    I went for 'never even tried' but I'd love to get something together in the future. I have plenty of ideas. :p:
    can I be in your future band? :puppyeyes:

    I'm supposedly in a band, but we have yet to even get all of us together at the same time/place, very useful living about 1 hour away from each other. But anyway, our bassist, is off to uni next year, so yeah, as much as i'd love it to work out, I don't see it happening any time soon.

    I do, but it's made of rubber. Yeah, I can almost hear the collective groan.

    My band at uni has recently come up with a stunning song about pizza and carlsberg... very simple song at heart... but very catchy... its a sing along song. Not recorded it yet though I'm afraid.

    my flatmate (the song writer and probably the singer) is away for a week and a half I'm afraid... plus we still need to fine tune it a little bit.

    I'm currently in 3 bands, writing some orchestral stuff, working on a prog rock opera and trying to fit in my instrumental album somewhere.

    Re: Do you have a band?
    well, I was in a Big Band at School for many years, rising from the bottom to become first desk Clarinet (2nd to the leader. There were 2 other first deskers)

    I'm also in a Ceilidh band, although we don't play very often. One or two gigs a year, and that's about it.

    I was in one of these bands that defy any kind of categorisation. There are still mp3s and so on on the web, so I'm not going to say the name, but it was... interesting. Keyboard, drums, electric guitar, bass, electric ukulele...

    Do you mean like an Avantasia/Rhapsody sort of project?

    Definitely worth the experience even if you don't take it too seriously.
